I'm with Mojo.
Colts just may blow it in the playoffs like before. also, I believe it is Peyton not Da Bears' Payton (Walter). |

Ya, if the Colts make it through the first round Chris... The Bears could have the Div in the bag as early as two weekend if they beat the Jets and the Pats and the Packers and Vikes lose.. They'll have a "by" round in the playoffs and be poised to take up on Peyton... That is if Indy doesn't choke like the last few years...Never say never... |

Chris, Da Bears spanked little brother last night and they'll take care of Payton when it's time
Actually I could care less since I'm a Pats fan and it's getting a little more painful each week. |

I once had a '64 (ish) Chris Craft woodie run-a-bout with a reverse rotation 350 Chevy (original engine was 327 changed out by PO). The boat was a hoot and I just loved that Chevey engine. I rebuilt the sucker as soon as I purchased the boat and then did my best to try and kill it, but never could. I sank the boat in my driveway three times over the years. After each sinking, I simply drained the oil, removed the spark plugs, put in new oil, turned her over, reinstalled the plugs and she fired right up and ran perfectly until I day I sold her.
The thing I liked about the Chevy RR engine was the use of gears to turn the camshaft, oil pump and thus distributor in a normal rotation manner. So, the only things turning RR are the crank and pistons. Made parts purchasing simple. Firing order was simply exchanging position of the #1 and #8 plug wires in the cap. I hope this tread keeps heading in a new direction (thread hijacked on purpose). |

Would a CC Skylark be a LH steer, RH engine boat?

Chris, Put some powder on that chafing and lets get this thing heeled over.
Brian, I feel like such a "Hick". As to steer side and rotation, certainly many boats had left hand steer over the years including a handful of CC's, but I was just referring to the norm of so many RH steers typically using rev rot engines, but we already see exceptions with Steve's Higgins. Steve, I guess Higgins wanted that LH steer and more than likely tested the boat and got the best performance with the RR engine? Hickins??? I think maybe I accidentally crossed Higgins with Huckins. Yeah, that's it. These were two of the handful of companies that built PT boats for the Navy way back when, for those that didn't already know. |

What Reid said... I've got a 62 "Higgins" (how did you know about them brian?) it has a "backward" rotating motor also ,but has a left-hand steer....heres a pic.. according to everything Ive ever heard about drive/engine torque theory, shouldnt my engine run "regular"? |

Reid,
I think perhaps you meant Higgins, not Hickens. You can add to that list Philbrick, Crooks and Trojan. I'm sure I'll think of some others. The Italian Rivas generally have the steering on the port side, though I'm not sure about engine rotation. Besotes out of Stockton, CA, and Dan Arena's Arenacraft boats also had port side steering. Next time I go to a boat show, I'll have to ask about the engine rotations. BKH |

Hey, maybe we can take this thread headed in a different, reverse direction, but not meaning to go backwards and rehash. But I don't know of many older inboard mfrs., i.e., Chris Craft, Century, Hickins, Gar Wood, Lyman, name any, going WAY back before my time anyway, that didn't use reverse rotation with a righthand/starboard steer small runabout with a 1:1 gear. The exception being the Chris flywheel-forward engines, which were basically a SB Chevy mounted backwards in the boat, which accomplished the same objective of torque compensating for or not adding to, the drivers weight. If you look at any older boat and it's turning a RH prop, and spinning it thru a 1:1 gear, then it's typically a rev rot engine. Or it's leaning to starboard.

[QUOTE=79nautique] Had a nice drive up to meet brent this morning trying to help him out with his dixie skier, it's a reverse rotation motor as well, I thought CC was the only ski boat manufacturer that used them, Learn something new everyday I guess. QUOTE]
Ski Centurion used reverse rotation as well. Don't know exactly what years, or if they still do, but I know they did in the late 80s and early 90s. BKH |

Gary I agree, I would have thought kieth would have pulled it by now but oh well I have thick skin and it really doesn't bother me, I just concider the source.

Might even try and drag jbear up there to watch and learn a little about turning wrenches. |

You seem to do a pretty good job trying to dominate a posting or giving your bit of advice and I'm glad you now the history of this site in the couple of months you've been here. I guess all us old timers that have been here five times as long as you, really haven't helped it out over the years, I'm sure glad we managed to stay here this long for you to save us from our evel demeaning ways. Guess maybe you never where able to hang out with the popular kids and now your bitter because of it, then again maybe it's just a southern thing. |

Robert ,could not agree with you more. My Dad had a neat saying" there just ai'nt enough sugar here for a nickel" this forum will continue to be a benefit to all that read,ask for knowledge,or those looking for parts,with or without my input, and i think that goes for all that contribute to this site.
one person can ruin the party for all,we dont need the attitude of one(79nautiqe)to dominate or intimidate those that he feels are under his IQ level. seems this site does just well without your input or for that matter output( doo doo) we will fill the void left by members that no longer feel they cannot keep it between the ditches................boat dr |

Wow...shocker. 79 isn't playing well with others.
The beauty of this website is that there are people who share a common interest and are willing to help other members with knowledge and parts when they can. I have never considered it to be a moneymaking venture. Yes, I don't expect to lose money but I'm also willing to do what it takes to get the stuff to someone who wants it and it's not always about the money. I wouldn't even consider charging someone S&H...these people are your friends. 79 is a knowledgeable guy but boy does it come at a steep price. When all is said and done...all you have is your word. Ship him the parts. You've made your point. |
